albuterol and Cancer of the Uterus

albuterol has been researched along with Cancer of the Uterus in 2 studies

Albuterol: A short-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist that is primarily used as a bronchodilator agent to treat ASTHMA. Albuterol is prepared as a racemic mixture of R(-) and S(+) stereoisomers. The stereospecific preparation of R(-) isomer of albuterol is referred to as levalbuterol.
albuterol : A member of the class of phenylethanolamines that is 4-(2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)phenol having a tert-butyl group attached to the nirogen atom. It acts as a beta-adrenergic agonist used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The three beta-agonists, salbutamol, ritodrine, and terbutaline have been shown to possess differing potentials to induce leiomyomas in rat costo-uterine muscle following chronic exposure (salbutamol greater than terbutaline greater than ritodrine)."3.68Relationship between in vitro relaxation of the costo-uterine smooth muscle and mesovarial leiomyoma formation in vivo by beta-receptor agonists.
